    "comment": "This song became an anthem for women's groups and a message of unity. The sisters of Sister Sledge told Top 2000 a gogo they're proud of the song because it gives them a familial connection with their fans, who often share stories with the group about their own families.\n\nThe song also represents the closeness of the sisters, who grew up singing as a form of recreation. Their grandmother was an opera singer who taught the girls how to harmonize and invited them to sing at her church. As a result, in their early days of performing around Philadelphia, they were known as Mrs. Williams' Granddaughters.",
